Welcome to Child Action Northwest

“Inspiring lives and changing futures”

It’s what we’ve been doing since 1886, in one form or another!

We passionately believe that every child and young person has the right to achieve their full potential, whatever their background or circumstances - and, as a result, we work with over 6000 children, young people and families in the North West of England every year.

We work in the heart of communities – often in partnership with other organisations - to end family cycles of deprivation, drug and alcohol abuse, lack of self-esteem, youth crime, teenage pregnancies and broken families.

As a result, we help to strengthen individuals, families and communities so that children and young people can lead healthy and meaningful lives, with the opportunity to succeed in school, to grow up to enjoy healthy relationships, to have access to training and employment opportunities and to be successful in the world of work.

Foster Care

If you are looking to foster then talk to us first, we offer a comprehensive payments and support package, which is amongst the best in the Northwest. Our service has been judged as OUTSTANDING by Ofsted.

We Need Volunteers

We are always in need of volunteers to help us carry out the work we do. If you have a few hours spare each week, or would even just like to help us occasionally to fund-raise or support our events then we would love to hear from you.

We would also like to hear from anyone who hosts fund-raising events in their organisations and would like to hold an event on our behalf. Also, if you are an adrenalin junky or take part in endurance events, then we have places available in some great participation events like the Bupa Manchester 10k and would love to have you on the team.
